There is a lot of mis-information written in the official record, 
sometimes intentionally (maybe I can get out of the draft if I give this 
answer), sometimes accidentally (question misunderstood or improperly 
transcribed), or maybe the individual just didn't know any different 
(his folks maybe were British or of British heritage and he just always 
assumed he was, too) -- ahh, the excitement of  'the hunt' -- "The Truth 
is Out There", finding it can be elusive, or finally find it, and then 
DNA proves otherwise (milkman syndrome, I call it) ...
